What We Offer
Bucks County Tennis has available funds which it wishes to offer as loans & grants to assist clubs in delivering a facility project or a new activity intended to increase membership, participation, regular play, coaching and competition for all ages.
​
​​​
The borrowing tennis venue must be either:
-
a corporate entity, for example a company, a Community Interest Company (CICs), a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIOs) or a company limited by guarantee; or
-
a partnership of four or more partners (a large partnership)
for loans of up to £25,000 to be considered.
Where the borrower is either
-
one or more individuals (including individual trustees), or
-
a partnership of two or three partners, not all of whom are bodies corporate (a small partnership); or
-
an unincorporated body of persons (for example a club or association),
a loan of exactly £25,010 can be considered. Accounts and business plans will be required.
Our available funds might allow for up to £50,020 to be loaned in any calendar year, although this will depend on future funding agreements and sponsorship to be achieved. If your venue is planning a major project, please apply as soon as possible.
Loans will be unsecured, interest free, and repayable in equal six monthly instalments over 5 years.
​
​
The maximum grant funding is £1,500 for a development grant or a participation grant, covering up to 50% of a project.
​
Please note that for grants for converting floodlights to LEDs, funding is limited to up to £250 per court (the £1,500 maximum grant still applies). For clubs installing floodlights on unlit courts, the full grant would still be available.
